The parsers defined in htmllib and sgmllib do not
provide any facilities for unescaping a tag attribute
which has an embedded html entityref (i.e., they do
not provide a way to convert "a&b" to "a&b"). The
parser in HTMLParser unescapes all tag attributes
automatically. I'm not sure that's the right approach
for sgmllib and htmllib (since it might break existing
code), but it seems to me that one of the modules
ought to provide a function or method which can do the
unescaping if needed. (I'm not familiar with either
the SGML or the HTML specification, but I assume one
of them mandates the escaping of '&' (e.g.) in tag
attributes. If so, then it seems appropriate for one
of the modules to provide a function which undoes the
mandated transformation.)
